Got Compost?





Yes, yes we do.

That's 10 cubic yards getting dumped on the driveway. We've been digging out and creating actual flower beds for the yard. There was no definition to anything here before, it was all just plants surrounded by grass. Which makes the yard a huge pain to mow and looked kinda crappy too. We're also going to create our vegetable garden (more of a small farm really) behind the garage. Thankfully it's been really unseasonable cool the past few days, highs in the low-mid 70s.

In the meantime our mini vegetable garden is exploding. Katelyn planted 4 tomato plants and 4 bell pepper plants by our patio this year. Katelyn took a bunch of green tomatoes into work today because her co-workers all like to make fried green tomatoes. We picked some green bell peppers and stuffed them with ground chicken, salsa, pepper jack cheese, and some jalapenos. They were delicious.

Back to shoveling.
